Kimberly Johnson is a certified Sexological Bodyworker, Somatic Experiencing practitioner, postpartum care advocate, birth doula, educator, breath work practitioner, and single mom. When I first became familiar with her work, Kimberly ran a private practice in California training birth professionals, bodyworkers, and somatic therapists to help women with issues such as prolapse, incontinence, painful sex, and other pelvic floor and gynecological issues. Iâve heard her say that her work is at the intersection of sex, birth, and trauma. She now lives in New York City and mostly teaches online. Her epic free masterclasses are not to miss, with topics like Healing from Gynecological Trauma, Activate Your Inner Jaguar, Trauma & Transcendence, a series of classes on the Nervous System (like Sex, Money, and the Nervous System), and most recently, a Business & Leadership mastermind for women. A bit of back story: Kimberly used to live on a tropical island in Brazil. Thatâs where she had her daughter - and after a great pregnancy and a home birth, she was shocked by how difficult and lengthy her healing journey had been. This journey led her to eventually write the bestseller â4th Trimester: A Postpartum Guide to Healing Your Body, Balancing Your Emotions, and Restoring Your Vitality.â And a second book is currently in the works. I canât wait! Every time I talk to Kimberly, she blows my mind. In this talk weâre about to learn how the Ancient Wiring of our Feminine Nervous Systems can be tapped to work for us and not against us, to think of trauma as un-metabolized experiences in our system, how to use breath to heal, how the Jaguar energy can help us get what we want in life and business, and how flight or freeze responses manifest when it comes to money, how ice baths might be exactly what youâve been missing, and if you watch the video version of this Talk, youâll also enjoy my pathetic attempt to growl at Kimberly. Thereâs so much more. | @magamamas | magamama.com | ourbreathcollective.com
Maha al Musa is an award-winning childbirth educator, international speaker, extended breastfeeding advocate, and a mother to 3 beautiful children. Maha gave birth to her last, her daughter Aminah, when she was 46 years. It was a homebirth in water and Maha went on to breastfeed her daughter till she self weaned at 8.5. When Maha was 54! They have both been featured and interviewed on various TV shows, magazines and online publications, including a Discovery Channel documentary. Maha is the founder of EmbodyBirth, which is her signature program for birth professionals and mothers-to-be. Sheâs the author of book Dance of the Womb: The Essential Guide to Belly Dance for Pregnancy and Birth. Itâs the worldâs first book that explores the ENORMOUS physical, emotional and spiritual benefits of belly dance as a prenatal exercise and process during labour. Through her wisdom and intimate storytelling, she helps us bridge the gap between the primal brain (which knows how to give birth) and the modern woman (who may need to be reminded of her instinctual capacity). I cried pretty much through the entire Talk. Mahaâs life story is heartbreakingly beautiful, and so many life lessons unfold. It was an honor to sit with Maha. She speaks of the experience of rejecting her Arab ethnicity when she was younger, of grieving the loss of her cultural identity in the confusing realm of East meets West, and her journey of healing the Mother wound. Weâre about to learn how being kidnapped away from her mother at 6 months of age shaped Mahaâs life, how hearing her motherâs voice for the first time marked Mahaâs life forever and the promise she made to herself, how belly dance shifts our body into expansion and surrender, what makes our cervix is the emotional gateway, how Maha dealt with the negative backlash after stories of her extended breastfeeding went viral, and valuable business wisdom. @maha_al_musa | mahaalmusa.com
